The Islamic Empire and the Catholic Church differed primarily in their foundational beliefs and governance. The Islamic Empire was a political and religious entity where the caliph was both a spiritual leader and a ruler, emphasizing the unity of religion and state. In contrast, the Catholic Church, as a religious institution, operated independently of secular governments, with the Pope serving as a spiritual authority but lacking direct political power. Additionally, the Islamic Empire embraced a diverse range of cultures and interpretations of Islam, while the Catholic Church sought to maintain a unified doctrine and practice among its followers.
